[ad_1]

The 25th MCU movie is set for a comfortable triple ride.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe Shang-Chi and the legend of the ten rings is expected to comfortably hold the top spot at the box office this weekend, with a $ 5.8 million Friday putting it on track for a three-day commute in the $ 20-22 million range. This will take Destiny Daniel Crettonthe comic book blockbuster of up to $ 175 million in total, which means it should pass Black WidowIt’s $ 183 million at some point next week.

Second place should go to free guy, which holds up after six weeks in theaters. In fact, the video game-inspired blockbuster has yet to leave the top five, having recently crossed the $ 100 million mark. Clint eastwood‘s crying macho debuted in theaters and HBO Max simultaneously, which could be a major reason it could only pull together $ 1.6 million on Friday, with a weekend of $ 4.5 million the expected result.

He may be 91, but Eastwood is still a draw when he makes his increasingly rare screen appearances, as evidenced by Gran Torino and The mule earning $ 270 million and $ 174 million worldwide in 2008 and 2018, but the legend’s latest effort won’t come close to those numbers. A pair of well-received horrors should round out the top five, with Our DaCosta‘s fellow is expected to reach $ 50 million in total by the end of Sunday, while James Wan |that’s crazy Smart is on track for $ 2.5 million.
